What Would You Say?

What do you say to old you from an earlier day?

What do you say?

What do you say to memories that won’t stay away?

What do you say?

What do you say the way you used to play?what do you say?

What do you say how your exes stray?

What would you say?

What would you say if it was you and not they?

What would you say?

What would you say if you could forget that day?

What would you say?

What would you say for the answers you pray?

What would you say?

What would you say if you’d let old dogs lay?

What would you say?

What would you say as your hair grows gray?

What would you say?

What would you say if she decided to stay?

What would you say?

I know what I’d say I want peace today and leave the past so far away.

That’s what I’d say.

Saturday Random Contemplations

In this consciousness we call life,

we have all been baptized in fire of adversity.

How we come out the other side is all that matters.

No need to dwell on the terrible things that happened, those just tested our mettle.

Try to remember that, when you’re overthinking like I do.

Find a peaceful way to integrate your past as a part of your life and series of lessons.

Some light and simple others quite cathartic.

Be present, be now, enjoy what’s in front of you.

Not what’s behind you or ahead of you…

Genesis: One For the Vine

This is most definitely the greatest Genesis song I have never heard before off an album I also hadn’t heard.

It’s pure Progressive Rock with a lot of great changes and odd time signatures.

Phil Collin’s vocals are very close to his predecessor’s Peter Gabriel.

This has become one of my favorite Genius songs and the Album The Wind And Withering as well.

Keep in mind this is progressive music. This is not the short poppy tunes. If you’re listening to the Genesis of the early to mid 80s (and beyond) this is a lot more complex sound.

As always thank you for reading…
